Human memory can change. In fact, only a minute away we can forget where the object we just put.
There are many factors that affect memory, but mostly because we are less concentrated.
To work around this, there is a simple way that can make us remember anything in just 5 minutes. This method is very useful for you who have forgetfulness.
A few weeks ago through his twitter account, Nielsen - a quantum physicist, science writer and computer programming researcher - shared the methods he used to store information indefinitely.
The technique he uses is something that many people know about flashcards.
For the last two years the genius of Autralia origin is claimed to memorize about 9,000 cards, which benefits his life as a whole.
Nielsen uses an app called Anki on his desktop and cell phone, where he keeps a digital flashcard that can be viewed at any time of the day.
He spends about 20 minutes a day checking out the dashboard while doing other things like waiting in line at a coffee shop.
This has enabled him to understand complex topics such as AlphaGo, a computer program.
The advantage of using 'repeats' or repeats done with a certain time lag as learning techniques has been explored in the past.
In 2016, Sean HK Kang, a director of the cognition and education laboratory at Dartmouth College, investigates how 'distance repetition' can benefit students in America who are not performing well academically in math, science and reading, as do students in the country other.
He concluded that incorporating repetitions spaced into education could improve students' school exam results.
According to Nielsen, the use of flashcards he gradually increased over the past few years. This recognition can control the ability of his memory.
"The biggest change is the memory is no longer arbitrary events, let alone the opportunity," wrote Nielsen via twitter account.
According to him, remembering something, with a little effort can make choices on the memory. If memorizing is a possibility that will save it for the next 5 minutes, this 'repeating' method is very effective to implement.
"The time expected to review in this life is less than five minutes, in other words, it takes less than five minutes to learn ... forever," he wrote.
